Denounces Trump’s reaction to Charlottesville violence

James Murdoch, the CEO of 21st Century Fox, slammed Trump’s equivocating response to the Charlottesville violence in a letter to staff on Thursday.

Murdoch, who is also the son of Fox founder Rupert Murdoch – a long-time friend and ally of Trump – appeared to take umbrage with Trump’s claim that there were ‘very good people’ among the white supremacists that marched in the Virginia city.

‘Charlottesville and the reaction to it by the President of the United States concern[s] all of us as Americans and free people,’ he wrote, in part, according to a copy of the email obtained by The New York TimesRead more.

‘I can’t even believe I have to write this: standing up to Nazis is essential; there are no good Nazis. Or Klansmen, or terrorists.’

Trump may have been correct. In videos I saw a few people who were kind of looking on in disgust, as if they came thinking the protest was going to be something different and then found themselves stuck in the middle of a mob. Until someone interviews each and every one of the people in the mobs, no one can dispute Trump. So why not just let it drop? It is really counter-productive to continue to rant on and on about the same thing day after day. Get over it already. This subject is post-relevant.
